Country Carnival.....

Hello and Happy Thursday Everyone! WOW we are already
heading into the weekend and Father's Day on Sunday! Boy
the month just seems to be flying by! LOL I've gotta take my
little guy to the Dr. today! I think he may have Pink Eye or
a terrible cold in his eyes... He looks awful and both eyes are
infected.... It started in the one eye and I told him not to scratch
his other eye.... That if it felt itchy to let me know... but he didn't
and that evening I noticed it right away and asked him and he said
he couldn't help it... I just shook my head and said now we have 2
eyes to take care of... He's been waking up and crying a lot cause
his throat has been hurting him and his eyes hurt... It looks like someone
beat the crap out of him! Really it does... I feel bad for him and I'm
hoping the Dr. can give him some sort of relief... we shall see! :o)
I've been making a few cards here and there but not
my full goal of getting the cards done for the card swap!
Don't worry I still have one more week cause the owner
of our LSS can't do it this week so that means I got
another week to make them! haha! :o) I did get the thank
you cards made for my oldest son to send out and they
went in the mail yesterday! Then I've been playing around my CCR
program and designing some more cards with my Imagine...
I really, really, really like that machine! Which you all
will notice as I start to show the cards I made with it! :o)
So without further ado here is my card! :o)


First I want to say that I LOVE how this card turned out!
Secondly I got this idea from this months Paper Crafts Magazine
I seen a card in there that looks like mine! That's because
I really, really liked that card! So I thought I could recreate it
using my IMAGINE! And I have to say I think I did GOOD! :o)
Any who... here are the specks for my card -

 Card Stock, Ink, Pen, Ribbon, Border Punch - Stampin' Up
Twine - Papertrey Ink
Tag - Making Memories
Cartridges - All the designer Paper is Country Carnival Art Imagine Cartridge
(Butterfly) Cut @ 1" (2 x's) Using the Country Carnival
Serenade - (Birdcage) Cut @ 3" (2 x's)
(Bird) Cut @ 1" using the Flipped Button

Here is the side view to show the popped up Birdcage and
the popped up butterfly.... I really like how this came
out! I KNOW I ALREADY SAID THAT! LOL
Well that's it for me this week... I hope you all
have a wonderful weekend and have a
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY with your Dad,Step-Dad, Grandfather,
Brother, Husband, Uncle.... Have an AWESOME DAY!!!
